![]() ![]() Then you have the quiet contributors: Derrick Nnadi, Mike Danna and Khalen Saunders. The young guys that the Chiefs have added over the last couple of seasons look to be getting better with every game. Like Patrick Mahomes, Chris Jones is having the best year of his career to date and is probably a sneaky outside for defensive player of the year. What is the main weakness on the defense and how could LA exploit it?Ī - Dare I say it but I think the Chiefs actually have a capable defense - something rarely afforded Patrick Mahomes so far. Q - The Chiefs’ defense sealed Sunday’s game with a clutch pick but their unit has been scrutinized at times all season. Although the sample size is relatively small, it looks like the Chiefs have a player that could be lining up behind Patrick Mahomes for a very long time. With Clyde’s role slowly diminishing as the season has gone on, Pacheco has seized almost every opportunity given. ![]() Whether it’s first and ten or third and one, the intensity of which that he runs never changes. What kind of dynamic does he bring to the offense and how do you envision his role with the playoffs quickly approaching?Ī - What I particularly like about the seventh-round running back is that he runs every play like it is the last play of his career. The Chiefs seem to be featuring him more in the offense with Clyde Edwards-Helaire probably out for the near future. Q - Rookie running back Isiah Pacheco went over the century mark for the first time in his young career in Sunday night’s win over the Chargers. It’s hard to argue with that description. Eric Bieniemy famously called Mahomes a ‘competitive prick’. Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, Usain Bolt all had it and I imagine they still have it - I wouldn’t want to play them at Monopoly on Christmas Day. He has that special something that no one can really put their finger on but everyone knows it exists. Obviously the guy is a once-in-a-generation talent but could you detail what all makes Mahomes so great and what could the Rams’ defense do to slow him down (assuming it’s possible)?Ī - I know every sportsman or woman is competitive - they wouldn’t be where they are if they weren’t - but Patrick Mahomes is a whole different level of competitive. Mahomes leads the NFL with 28 touchdown passes and if this elite production continues, he’s a lock for his second career MVP. ![]() Q - The last part of that first question could be answered in two words: Patrick Mahomes. Oh, and that guy called Travis helps too. With Reid’s playcalling madness and Mahomes’ pure brilliance, the Chiefs’ offense will always be elite. Who else would put their third-string tight end in this position? But secondly, we need to recognize Andy Reid’s brilliance. Now first up I need to give props to Mahomes for making a ridiculous throw. Still thinking about it /aVjjuRXKr7- Nate Tice November 21, 2022 Coverage on Forston was perfect, yet Mahomes managed to make a near-impossible throw. Jody Fortson (a tight end) ran a sweep motion which turned into a wheel route up the field. How have the Chiefs replaced Hill’s production and what makes this offense so impossible to contain?Ī - There was a moment of realization against the Chargers in which I decided that it doesn’t matter who the Chiefs roll out at receiver, they will always be productive. I wasn’t buying it and sure enough by Thanksgiving, Kansas City figures to wrap up the AFC West soon with the conference’s top seed firmly in their sights. Q - Going into the season, outsiders believed the Chiefs would struggle without Tyreek Hill. With LA trying to play spoiler this weekend, I spoke with Tom Childs from SB Nation’s Chiefs blog Arrowhead Pride to gain more insight into L.A.’s opposition this weekend. For some reason, I don’t expect this matchup to end with another 54-51 final. Perkins will need to be on his A game Sunday if the Rams have any hope in beating a Super Bowl contender on the road. Not only will LA be without Matthew Stafford but they’ll be starting a quarterback making his first NFL start. The Los Angeles Rams have lost four consecutive games and things won’t get any easier this week against the Kansas City Chiefs. ![]()
